More than two in three Americans disapprove of how President Barack Obama is dealing with soaring gas prices, but don’t focus their blame on him for causing the problem, according to a new poll.

Most Americans, 68 percent, disapprove of Obama’s handling of gas prices, including 89 percent of Republicans, 73 percent of independents and 52 percent of Democrats, a Reuters/Ipsos survey found Tuesday. Only one in four, 24 percent, said they approve of the president’s response to high energy prices.

Even though a majority of people are unhappy with the president’s handling of the issue, many don’t necessarily blame Obama for high prices at the pump.

Thirty-six percent of those surveyed said “oil companies that want to make too much profit” deserve the most blame for gas prices, including 28 percent of Republicans, 32 percent of independents and 44 percent of Democrats. Another one in four, 26 percent, said a host of other factors were equally responsible for the problem, including oil companies, politicians, foreign countries and environmentalists concerned about limiting oil exploration.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll was conducted March 26-27 among 606 Americans and has a margin of error of 4.6 percentage points.

Meanwhile, a new Gallup survey reveals that economic issues continue to dominate the list of top 15 concerns among Americans – 71 percent of people said they worry about the economy “a great deal,” while 65 percent said the same thing about gas prices. Other problems topping the list of national worries included federal spending and the budget deficit, the availability and affordability of health care and unemployment.
